Hi Team Sky! My name is Tracy. I forgot what my goals are for this challenge. I'll have to look it up.
This is going to be super fun! I can't wait to learn a little more about this team! I'm heading out for a ride in about 30 minutes. Good luck everyone! -

Hi! I'm Jeff (if you couldn't guess).
I just finished my (personal) "Run every day in June" challenge, so I'm going to try for a "Ride each day of a TdF stage." As far as distance, I decided to divide each _real_ stage by ten, and then do that distance, but in miles - I know, kinda goofy. Anyway, that works out to 343 miles.
Since I've been tri-ing, I've only hit 300 in a month three times, so this will be cool if I can make it!
Good luck Team Sky!!

Hey! I'm Emma! I'm doing 9 stages an 120 miles. Haven't biked consistently in months so hopefully this will help me get back into the swing of things.

I'm Yanti.
I'm an attention ho.
I'm completely insane.
That explains why I'm doing 15 stages, 16.5 hours. Okay, that's not a lot, but I that's more than the TOTAL riding I've done in the last year ...
but it is Tour de Piglets time and I am ready to RIDE with my T.I.T.S. outside!
Actually, I'll be on a trainer due to the concussion, but it just sounded good.
SO SO SO SO happy to see a bunch of Crushers here (SKY CRUSHERS!!! sounds great) and the addition of wonderful piglets Casie, Jeff, and Chad.

owl_girl - 2011-07-03 5:45 AM One stage and 50 mile done!
50 miles for starters? That's it?
You really are a hard-core biker chick! But I always knew that ...
Shoot, I was supposed to pound an hour out, but I accidentally fell into disco clothes and leather strappy hooker heels and the next thing I knew I was at a club at midnight ...
I'm gonna be screaming tomorrow.

Can you put cleats on those things and ride a mechanical bull? Would that count? -

Hi Jeff! I love your method of riding the Tour! I think you are going to do great! -

Why don't we introduce our bikes as well.
I have two steeds. My roadie is a sweetie. She's a gold and black Felt named Goldilocks. I also have a stealthy, fast black Felt TT bike named Raven.
I'm so disappointed that Felt is not part of the peloton this year. -

Yah! Hi everyone, a little late to the challenge, but I just ran a marathon today. The plan is to recover for the week and get back into cycling when (a) I get home back to my bike and (b) my quads stop screaming. The plan is to average 30mins on the bike for the second and third weeks of the tour, but I'll confirm later in the week.In the meantime I'll get back to the team time trial. -

Anyway, goals....I guess lets go with 15 stages, 600 km. I'll get to that spreadsheet now....
